Shock (1946)

After witnessing the murder of a neighbor, Janet Stewart (Anabel Shaw) falls into catatonic state. Her husband Paul (Frank Latimore) turns to Dr. Richard Cross (Vincent Price) for guidance. When she come to, Janet is faced with the very man responsible for the murder. With her cries of murder go unanswered, Janet must fight to survive Dr. Cross and his demented nurse/lover.

With its melodramatic score and B&W rendering, Shock is a highly predictable, mediocre thriller that only really entertains if you're a fan of the genre. As B-movies go, Shock is a solid B-. The film doesn't have much bite despite Vincent Price and my macabre fascination of him. At only 70+ minutes, it won't waste your time, but it won't shock you either.
